We will focus on the idea of information literacy in particular, as we seek to understand the growing complexity that is taking place in the way that computers and digital technology influence, and are influenced by, thinking and learning. This includes the need to use critical thinking skills to make sense of the enormous amount of information that becomes accessible through computers, as well as the way that various formats of information and computer-based resources might support thinking and learning. We consider computers in contexts such as collaborative thinking, applications of to education and other fields, and understanding ourselves in a digital culture.
